Executive Summary
The U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey denied Flagstar Bank's defendants' motion to reassign and adopted a magistrate judge's recommendation to remand the case to state court, where it was originally filed. The ruling resolves a procedural dispute over jurisdiction and case management but does not address the merits of the underlying breach of contract and fraudulent transfer claims.
